Hitler cited Canada for Lebensraum justification in 1941: "I donโt see why a German who eats a piece of bread should torment himself with the idea that the soil which produced this bread has been won by the sword. When we eat wheat from Canada, we donโt think about the despoiled Indians"

Old Tomorrowโs Bicentennial: Donโt Think Motivation, Think Law
By James Daschuk Ok, first things first: I do not hate John A. Macdonald. At the risk of maddening some colleagues out there, I am wary of trying to contort huge historical events and consequences โฆActive History
That traitor conservstives don't lose their seat for breaking their oath of office is an example of how Canada's legal system is biased for the perps.
That traitor conservatives aren't charged with espionage or treason for colluding with a hostile fascist foreign power that has verbally stated the objective of "annexing" Canada is an example of how Canada's legal system is biased for the perps.
It was weaknesses like this that allowed the successful fascist coup of the USA.
These are existential weaknesses.
The courts won't fix it.
The politicians won't fix it.
Fascism leverages democratic weakness into authoritarian power.

But we have seen for a year now that amendments 1 4 10 and 14 are de facto void.
And in the c/a/n/a/d/a project the conservative prime minister Carney has a package of draconian legislation to curtail our Charter of Rights and Freedoms to a degree never seen since they were created in 1982.
Fuck the fascists.

The EU is eyeing new treaties with #Canada, #Korea and #Japan presumably in the same way that it includes #Australia. A โmiddle powersโ NATO-like compact may be our best hope to maintain some kind of rules-based global order while super powers destroy themselves in illegal wars.

A few months ago, a Canadian judge got her #amazon , #google , #uber, credit cards accounts, etc. closed.
She was doing her job investigating war crimes made in Afghanistan, including by the #USA
That offended Americans. They decided to close all her accounts, which they have control over.
I'm expecting this behavior to become more and more common.
This is why #canada should work on #digitalsovereignty

Check out this insane curl by #Canada's #JonThurston against #Norway
If you don't know #curling the goal is to get your stones closer to the center than your opponent. The strategy is to knock your opponent's stones out, avoiding (or knocking closer) your own stones
His precision is stunning
There are no sweepers in #wheelchair curling, no adjustments to the shot after it is made. Instead his teammates hold his wheelchair steady

If only Carney had the courage to say something like this on behalf of Canadians...
Prime Minister Sanchez of Spain:
โBecause the question is not whether or not we are in favour of the Ayatollahs. No one is. Certainly not the Spanish people and of course not the Spanish government. The question, rather, is whether or not, we are on the side of international law and therefore, of peace.โ
instead we get waffling and backtracking.
